Virat Kohli will aim to create history when India takes the field in the first Test of the Border-Gavaskar Trophy (BGT) at the Optus Stadium in Perth from November 22. Kohli has a sensational record in Australia with 3426 runs to his name in 70 innings and a stunning tally of 11 centuries to his name.

Virat Kohli believes "batting is 70 per cent technical", but at 36 does he still have the game and the mental fortitude to recover from the slump during the tour of Australia.

Virat Kohli considers his century in Perth during the 2018-19 Border-Gavaskar Trophy as his best innings in Australia. Despite the challenging pitch, Kohli scored a remarkable 123 runs, although India lost the match.

Starting with the first Test in Perth and then the pink-ball game at Adelaide, the Australian pacers are expected to exploit Virat Kohli’s outside-the-offstumps problems. It’s an issue that Kohli faced in the past.
